the drama deserves a rating around that.
I would say around 9 in the mortal arc but the immortal arc deserves 7.5 or so.
There are too many inconsistencies, unanswered questions and unfulfiled potential in the immortal arc for it to deserve a higher rating.

it is sad a bad ending

check ancient love poetry.

this would have improved the ep a LLLOOOOOOTTTT

The descriptions of familiar stranger and colorful bones are simillar/about the same themes.

I chosed to watch colorful bone and it is a realy nice drama. it is a mix of 2/3 wuxia 1/3 historical/politcial. I was very surprised that I liked the show so much

you lost interest in lbfad and alp after 1 ep?
by coincidence both of these dramas have several similarities to tteotm.

you should try to watch a couple more episodes. these shows aren't generic nor lukewarm. if you like heartbreak with a happy ending watch alp!

you can watch colourful bone instead of familiar stranger.

that is what people will say about tteotm...

you had lbfad less than a year ago...
even ancient love poetry is a hard contender and pretty recent

it is a ok rated xianxia (7.9) that I have almost started to watch several times. But then I go read the coments about it and things like this appear:

At this point I'm speechless. The story or plot fuck me over. All the characters in the drama were sad as a hack. The author just wants every character to be miserable and love killing everyone in the story. And I don't get the evil guy controlling Lue Ge. He was probably obsessed with Liu Shao. I WATCH ALL THE 40 EPISODES OF THIS. 😫😤


And then I loose the will to watch it...

strangely you didn't mention immortal samsara or song of the moon. why would it be?

They even did their best to make ttj a better person derving the world but gave him a worse ending than the novel. I think some chinese producers just have problems with giving us satisfying endings. Because not only the happy part, the whole novel ending is MUCH better than the drama.

If you compare the 2 they are miles apart.

the thing is while you might not forget the drama there is little chance it will atract new watchers.

Most people don't want to go through 40 eps of tragedy without some pay off at the ending-

same here.
I think because the story is vey catching.

I wouldn't be surprised if there is a short epilogue where ttj reunites with lss for some unknown reason. lss has something she promised to tell him after all...

the problem is how they are going to make me feel something about their reunion. while ttj deserves the world lss has rarely shown her love for him in 40 eps. I don't think 3 or 4 min will chage the over all feeling of the drama

select the notif and scroll down.
the response to your coment is collored...

I disagree.
I saw the first episodes of IS and it screamed tragedy and torture. It is the reason I decided to stop and wait for the coments to know how sad it was going to be.

is this how people that watched immortal samsara felt at the end of the show?

sad and bad ending

xiao lin and bitchang?
ttj sidekick and fu ya?

The xianxias that are considered classics all have happish endings.
This ending can create buzz now, but in a year there will be no new watchers for this show.
The most frequent question for any show is if there is a HE. If there isn't a lot of people don't watch it. If the whole show is a tragedy then even less people watch it.

And thre are some high rated xianxias here that nobody watch.
